The Journey: Springing from a fascination with swinging England, Tea & Rock ‘n‘ Roll evokes a modern day dandy, between bowler hat and electric guitar. Someone who, after a glorious night outdoors, in a burst of unbridled elegance, perfumes himself from his morning cup of tea as he returns home at 5 am.
Terribly British, furiously chic, daringly zany.
Tea & Rock'N Roll smells like a bergamot tea, with the smoky and velvety notes of leathery maté rounded off with tonka bean.
All Voyages Imaginaires formulas are created only with natural ingredients or from natural origin and wheat organic alcohol.

THE BRAND
Camille Goutal and Isabelle Doyen are long-time partners in perfumery passionate about using natural materials to create 100% all-natural perfumes in organic wheat alcohol. Their goal is to create unique and fine fragrances that sublimate the natural ingredients to abstraction. Their inspiration comes from real or imaginary voyages to lands of magnified ingredients, hidden memories, and dreamy destinations. They believe that the escape must feel complete and the scent should be bewitching for both women and men.
Isabelle Doyen is a professor at the ISIPCA (College of Perfume in Versailles) who has trained many perfumers, including Francis Kurkdjian and Mathilde Laurent. She worked with Annick Goutal for many years and never left her side. During this time, she also met Camille Goutal, whom she considers a niece. Isabelle describes herself as an "enthusiastic sponge" who draws inspiration from her love of reading, art exhibitions, conductors, dancers, and lyrics. Her creations include L'Antimatière and Turtle Vetiver for Les Nez, Nuit de Bakélite by Naomi Goodsir, and Ce Soir ou Jamais, which she co-designed with Annick Goutal.
Camille Goutal was a studio photographer before turning to perfumery. She has a very visual approach to the creation of perfumes and is the artistic director of Voyages Imaginaires. In the shared lab alongside Isabelle Doyen, she learned to be a "nose" and use all her senses at once.
For Voyages Imaginaires, each creation is a tender-scent journey reminiscent of something familiar and, simultaneously, takes us to a new, virginal land. It is a journey of discovery with a magnifying glass, a pilgrimage to a land of faded memories, or a hike through a dream landscape. The memories are clear, and the ideas are about to be born.
